I recall seeing that on a field trip when I was a kid. May have been late 80's. Thing was really cool. That was when teachers were more concerned with teaching history rather than purging it from our collective memory. ...

This was really my initial thought as well. As long as we make use of him, I don't really care where he lines up....

You're right, it's state property. But again, the state DOES NOT manage or otherwise operate the park. At all. Its hands are almost completely off of it.
